This exciting spring concert opens with Weill’s Suite from The Threepenny Opera, which is filled with the jazz-infused zeal of the 1920s. The jazz influence extends to both sides of the Atlantic in Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue, performed by exceptional pianist Peter Jablonski.
Led by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra’s Principal Associate Conductor, Alexander Shelley, the Orchestra will explore Debussy’s unique musical language in his Prélude à l’après-midi d’un faune before closing with Ravel’s delicate and subtle Le tombeau de Couperin, which is poignantly tinged with the sadness of World War I.
